Too much of a good thing: Overproduction of virulence factors impairs cryptococcal pathogenicity
The regulation of virulence factor production and deployment is crucial for the establishment of microbial infection and subsequent pathogenesis. If these processes are not properly coordinated, the infecting pathogen is less likely to both survive the immune response and cause damage to the host. O...
